WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT THE UPCOMING LIBRARY LEVY VOTE…
On August 4th, YOU will shape the future of Sno-Isle Libraries for years to come. Because of increased costs and community use, the Library District is asking voters to make an important decision.
WHAT’S ON THE BALLOT?
A proposal to restore the Library District’s property tax levy rate to $0.47 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value.
YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR INVESTMENT
Here’s what the ballot language means in practice; If the library levy is restored, a home with an assessed property value of $748,100* would pay $124.25 more a year ($10.35 more a month), and a home with an assessed property value of $640,150** would pay $106.32 more a year ($8.86 more a month).
* Snohomish County median home value **Island County median home value
